Happy 12th Birthday Atreyu!!

Happy 12th birthday to the boy who made me a mom! Jesse is still Atreyu's best friend and they both love spending time with each other. Atreyu is also good at making his mama feel loved. He participated in his first track meet yesterday. He got second in the 400 meter and fourth in the 800 meter. I'm proud of the young man he is becoming and I'm so thankful to be his mama. He chose to have Four-Layer Delight and Boston Cream Pie this year.

Easter Sunday and Atreyu's Birthday Celebration

On Easter, the Huynh family came with us to church. It was so cool having them there. They only stayed for sacrament (except for Mai, who went to primary), and I don't know if they'll come again but I know they felt the spirit. 
When we got home, we had an Easter egg hunt.
We then had dinner with the Huynhs and celebrated Atreyu's birthday.

Ward Easter Breakfast

Our ward had an Easter breakfast on Saturday. Jesse had to work, but I was able to take all my kids, all the Huynh kids, and Brendan Lockwood to the party. There was supposed to be an Easter egg hunt outside, but it was cold and rainy, so everything got moved inside. It was a fun little get together. The big kids had fun hiding eggs and the littles had fun finding them.

Magnus the Climber

Oh Magnus! This little boy definitely keeps me on my toes. If we don't close the gate into the kitchen, he goes right in, finds the stool, pulls it over to the counter, and climbs right up. 

When I'm up in my room, Magnus loves to pull the packs of diapers out from under the sink, stack them on each other, and climb up them. I don't know what I'm going to do with this little guy.

Jesse

Back in September last year, Jesse started a challenge at a gym called The Camp. It was a challenge that if you lose 20 pounds in six weeks, the money you paid would roll over to the next challenge. Jesse has worked so hard exercising and eating healthier. He completed three challenges reaching that goal, but he wasn't able to complete the fourth. He had already lost so much weight and he's building muscle, but he looks amazing! I am super proud of him.

Cosette

Cosette is such a funny girl with a big personality. She's definitely in the "terrible threes" throwing tantrums when she doesn't get her way and becoming increasingly sassier, but she is also very sweet and loves to give me loves. One of my favorite things about Cosette right now is that she says that she loves people the "lotest" and, "only one person can love the lotest and I do."

These Two

I love that when we decided to have more kids, we chose to have two. I love watching Cosette and Magnus together. Cosette loves to give Magnus hugs and kisses before bed and Magnus likes to randomly give Cosette hugs throughout the day. They were being so cute at Costco as we waited in line.


Honor Roll

While homeschooling, there were many times where I felt that my kids weren't learning all that they should be. That was probably partly true but, because they are both so smart, and because they had such awesome teachers, they were both on the honor roll again for the second semester. I'm so proud of Atreyu and Cambria and all their hard work.
